This month in the InMon Universe: Researched various writing competitions, read sample winners, and found most of them depressing. Then I discovered the To Hull and Back humorous writing contest. The winner’s face gets pasted on the anthology’s cover illustration of a person riding a Harley and holding a flaming quill pen. The contest creator then straps the book to the handlebars of his actual hog and rides it, you guessed it, to Hull and back, and films it all with a GoPro. The man is a genius. Bless him.

This week at InMon Central: They’ve officially named Arrival director Dennis Villeneuve to direct the first of the new Dune movie series! Could this actually be good? In other news, this is the first monthly InMon post. Feel free to continue writing weekly pieces if you like; though I can’t promise I’ll be able to read them all, I will still link to them!
